Linc Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 ...and recognizing that the likelihood of us engaging in the kind of warfare that would take advantage of the Comanche's design was far more unlikely than experiencing the current type of conflict, it was determined to be a cost far exceeding the benefit of owning such a helicopter. It wasn't developed to absorb small arms and heavy machine gun any more than the AH-64, and UH-60, the current most advanced helicopters in the Army inventory. Quote
